National Resilience, Inc. (Resilience), a technology-focused biomanufacturing company dedicated to broadening access to complex medicines, announced today the next phase of its growth in the Cincinnati region. The company is bolstering its presence in West Chester, Ohio, while also expanding operations in Blue Ash, Ohio. This expansion will create 200 new jobs and contribute $17.2 million in payroll to the local economy.

 

The planned expansion will bring Resilience’s Cincinnati workforce to nearly 1,100 employees, marking a significant milestone in its rapid growth since its inception just two years ago. This achievement is the result of continued collaboration with REDI Cincinnati and JobsOhio.

 

“We are excited to continue our successful partnership with JobsOhio and REDI Cincinnati, as we reach new milestones in expanding our capabilities and impact,” says William Marth, RPh., MBA, President and CEO of Resilience. “Since our inception, we’ve worked tirelessly to build a resilient future—and we’re excited to announce this recent growth, which enhances our drug product manufacturing capabilities in West Chester, Ohio.” We are deeply grateful for the ongoing collaboration and support of our amazing team, partners, and customers as we take this next step in our journey.”

 

Kimm Lauterbach, President and CEO of REDI Cincinnati, commented, “Resilience’s second expansion and its approach to 1,000 local jobs underscores why the Cincinnati region is a hub for leading life sciences organizations, including biotech, pharmaceuticals, and medical devices. The life sciences sector contributes $6.8 billion to the region’s gross product (GRP) and employs over 20,000 people, highlighting its critical role in our region’s diverse economy.”

 

“The continued investment by Resilience cements West Chester as a powerhouse for advanced manufacturing and biomedical research,” said West Chester Township's Economic Development  Manager Michelle Cone. “With over 3,500 businesses and a thriving healthcare and manufacturing sector, we’ve built a community that fuels innovation, growth, and opportunity. Resilience’s expansion is a big win—not just for West Chester, but for the entire region. We’re proud to support their mission and excited for the impact this will have locally and nationally.

 

Blue Ash also welcomes this expansion. “Blue Ash is thrilled to add Resilience to its robust portfolio of life sciences companies.  We sincerely appreciate the work of REDI Cincinnati and JobsOhio that actively seeks to grow the bio health cluster in this region.  It is a testament to our community and its leaders that Blue Ash remains prepared to support the fast-paced growth of an industry leader like Resilience.” Dan Johnson, Economic Development Director, Blue Ash.

 

Resilience previously announced 440 new jobs with an associated annual payroll of nearly $29 million in collaboration with REDI Cincinnati and JobsOhio, over a three-year period, in 2023.  The new facility will mark a significant step in its ability to deliver top-tier contract development and manufacturing (CDMO) services to partners and customers in the pharma and biotechnology markets. While building a pipeline of local talent in the area, the new site will provide jobs in operations, quality, regulatory and manufacturing.
